Acute Pain Caused by Paclitaxel in Patients With Cancer

Paclitaxel-Associated Acute Pain Syndrome Natural History Study

RATIONALE: Gathering information over time from patients receiving paclitaxel for cancer may help doctors learn more about pain caused by paclitaxel and plan the best treatment.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying acute pain caused by paclitaxel in patients with cancer.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To describe the incidence and characteristics of and change in pain related to paclitaxel infusions over several courses in patients receiving paclitaxel weekly or every 2-4 weeks with or without neurotoxic chemotherapy.
  • To investigate the association between paclitaxel-induced acute pain syndrome symptoms and eventual chemotherapy-induced neuropathy.
  • To perform exome-sequencing analysis and identify genetic variants that predict paclitaxel- induced peripheral neuropathy.
  • To identify clinical phenotypes associated with paclitaxel toxicity (i.e., acute pain syndrome and neuropathy).
  • To explore whether there are any evident differences between results seen in the majority Caucasian population and the minority populations.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are grouped according to paclitaxel dosing schedule (weekly vs every 2-4 weeks) and concurrent use of neurotoxic agent (yes vs no).

Blood samples are collected at baseline for correlative laboratory studies, including genetic biomarker and polymorphism studies.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Group I
Patients complete pain questionnaires at baseline, 2-8 days after each weekly paclitaxel treatment given in combination with a neurotoxic agent, and then monthly for 1 year. Information about the type, location, and duration of pain and neuropathy as well as types of interventions used to manage the pain symptoms and the patients' pain responses is collected.
Group II
Patients complete pain questionnaires at baseline, 2-8 days after each weekly paclitaxel treatment not given in combination with a neurotoxic agent, and then monthly for 1 year. Information about the type, location, and duration of pain and neuropathy as well as types of interventions used to manage the pain symptoms and the patients' pain responses is collected.
Group III
Patients complete pain questionnaires at baseline, 2-8 days after each 2-4 week paclitaxel treatment given in combination with a neurotoxic agent, and then monthly for 1 year. Information about the type, location, and duration of pain and neuropathy as well as types of interventions used to manage the pain symptoms and the patients' pain responses is collected.
Group IV
Patients complete pain questionnaires at baseline, 2-8 days after each 2-4 week paclitaxel treatment not given in combination with a neurotoxic agent, and then monthly for 1 year. Information about the type, location, and duration of pain and neuropathy as well as types of interventions used to manage the pain symptoms and the patients' pain responses is collected.
